The Network Atlas Géza Perneczky NETWORK ATLAS Works and Publications by the People of the First Network Volume 1: A - N A Historical Atlas for the Post-Fluxus Movements as Mail Art, Visual Poetry, Copy Art, Stamp Art & Other Relative Trends with Addresses, Projects, Publications & Exhibition Events (Unedited manuscript) * Up to date: July 2004. © Geza Perneczky Soft Geometry, Cologne 2 3 It's very important for me to say that I consider my occupation as an artist as very small and insignificant but at the same time as one of great dignity. I mean the refusal to accept compromisses with power, no matter of what kind it is, and the rejection of the use of art and the artistic work as its instrument... Es muy importante para mí expresar que el ejercicio de mi profesión artística lo veo como una actividad muy modesta, pero con mucha dignidad a la vez. Me refiero a la actitud de rechazo de todo compromiso con el poder, cualquiera que sea, y de la utilización de la actividad creadore como instrumento de él... Es ist für mich sehr wichtig zu sagen, daß ich meine künstlerische Tätigkeit als sehr bescheiden betrachte, gleichzeitig aber als eine von großer Würde. Ich meine damit das Zurückweisen von Kompromissen mit der Macht, egal welcher Art sie ist, und das Zurückweisen der Benutzung der Kunst und der künstlerischen Tätigkeit als ihr Instrument...

  • Principia Discordia.Pdf
    RAW Intro | Omar Intro | Title Page | Index | Version Notes | INTRODUCTION You hold in your hands one of the Great Books of our century fnord. Some Great Books are recognized at once with a fusillade of critical huzzahs and gonfolons, like Joyce’s Ulysses. Others appear almost furtively and are only discovered 50 years later, like Moby Dick or Mendel’s great essay on genetics. The Principia Discordia entered our space-time continuum almost as unobtrusively as a cat-burglar creeping over a windowsill. In 1968, virtually nobody had heard of this wonderful book. In 1970, hundreds of people from coast to coast were talking about it and asking the identity of the mysterious author, Malaclypse the Younger. Rumors swept across the continent, from New York to Los Angeles, from Seattle to St. Joe. Malaclypse was actually Alan Watts, one heard. No, said another legend – the Principia was actually the work of the Sufi Order. A third, very intriguing myth held that Malaclypse was a pen-name for Richard M. Nixon, who had allegedly composed the Principia during a few moments of lucidity. I enjoyed each of these yarns and did my part to help spread them. I was also careful never to contradict the occasional rumors that I had actually written the whole thing myself during an acid trip. The legendry, the mystery, the cult grew very slowly. By the mid- 1970’s, thousands of people, some as far off as Hong Kong and Australia, were talking about the Principia, and since the original was out of print by then, xerox copies were beginning to circulate here and there.

  • Mapping Topographies in the Anglo and German Narratives of Joseph Conrad, Anna Seghers, James Joyce, and Uwe Johnson
    MAPPING TOPOGRAPHIES IN THE ANGLO AND GERMAN NARRATIVES OF JOSEPH CONRAD, ANNA SEGHERS, JAMES JOYCE, AND UWE JOHNSON DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Kristy Rickards Boney, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by: Professor Helen Fehervary, Advisor Professor John Davidson Professor Jessica Prinz Advisor Graduate Program in Professor Alexander Stephan Germanic Languages and Literatures Copyright by Kristy Rickards Boney 2006 ABSTRACT While the “space” of modernism is traditionally associated with the metropolis, this approach leaves unaddressed a significant body of work that stresses non-urban settings. Rather than simply assuming these spaces to be the opposite of the modern city, my project rejects the empty term space and instead examines topographies, literally meaning the writing of place. Less an examination of passive settings, the study of topography in modernism explores the action of creating spaces—either real or fictional which intersect with a variety of cultural, social, historical, and often political reverberations. The combination of charged elements coalesce and form a strong visual, corporeal, and sensory-filled topography that becomes integral to understanding not only the text and its importance beyond literary studies. My study pairs four modernists—two writing in German and two in English: Joseph Conrad and Anna Seghers and James Joyce and Uwe Johnson. All writers, having experienced displacement through exile, used topographies in their narratives to illustrate not only their understanding of history and humanity, but they also wrote narratives which concerned a larger global ii community.

  • Dear Reader. Don't Read
    1 Guy Schraenen Ulises Carrión Dear reader. Don’t read. The revolution engendered by access to knowledge on the Internet brings to the fore certain artistic projects of the past that seem to resonate with the present, as a kind of wake-up call or an invitation to reflect. This is the case, for instance, of the heterodox, multiform oeuvre of the artist, writer, and publisher Ulises Carrión. Right from its title, the exhibition Dear reader. Don’t read raises a paradox in the form of a negative imperative: it reminds us of the need to approach written text, literature, and hence culture as an ambiguous and contra- dictory field full of latent meanings that may perhaps even surface through their negation. The exhibition, which takes the thought-provoking form of a large exhibited—or “published”—archive, inquires into what a museum can contain, beyond traditional formats. It also explores what an art institution can do in the sense of giving voice to groups of thoughts that have been hidden by the veil of time and by the material complexity of the media in which they are expressed. The Ulises Carrión exhibition and publication are presented at a time when both the Museo Reina Sofía and its foundation are paying close attention to archives, particularly those related to Latin America’s cultural scene. Due to their very nature, these groups of units of knowledge are at risk of disappearing, either literally in the physical sense or by succumbing to oblivion and neglect, to the point where they can no longer be read or interpreted.

  • A FLOWER CARPET for ANTWERP Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven Francis
    A FLOWER CARPET FOR ANTWERP Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven Francis Strauven Flower carpets have been a tradition in Flanders since the 1950s. As a rule they employ the pattern of an Oriental carpet, a symmetrical composition of geometric or vegetal motifs, punctuated by symbols of the city in question, all of it made of colourful cutflowers, nearly always begonias. Anyone happening to visit Antwerp’s Grote Markt in June 2015 saw something entirely different: not a pastiche of a traditional carpet composed of decapitated flower heads but an original work of art made with living plants, an enormous contemporary painting realized with vivid pigments of flowers and herbs in full bloom. This position is not only a stance regarding the cultural policy of Belgian cities, it is in the first place the presentation of a work of art in its capacity of being a viewpoint. The work of art itself, the flower carpet realized by Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven in 2015 on the Antwerp market square, is presented and interpre- ted as a stance regarding its urban and societal context. The Academy’s Standpunten series (Position papers) contributes to the scientific debate on current social and artistic topics. The authors, members and working groups of the Academy, write in their own names, independently and in full intellectual freedom. The quality of the published studies is guaranteed by the KVAB POSITION PAPERS approval of one or several of the Academy’s classes. 41 b Royal Flemish Academy of Belgium for Science and the Arts - 2018 A FLOWER CARPET FOR ANTWERP KVAB Press KVAB POSITION PAPERS 41 b Cover photo: Philippe Van Wolputte Cover design: Francis Strauven The drawing of the Palace of the Academies is a reproduction of the original perspective made by Charles Vander Straeten in 1823.

  • Mendes Wood DM at Villa Era Matthew Lutz Kinoy: Grand Entrance | Rebel Archives – Curated by Sofia Gotti 31 May – 17 July 2021
    Mendes Wood DM at Villa Era Matthew Lutz Kinoy: Grand Entrance | Rebel Archives – curated by Sofia Gotti 31 May – 17 July 2021 Villa Era Vigliano Biellese, Biell Mendes Wood DM is proud to announce its second cycle of exhibitions at Villa Era, a historic 19th-century house and estate in the Italian countryside, located near Biella, between Milan and Turin. Matthew Lutz-Kinoy: Grand Entrance The American-born, Paris-based artist Matthew Lutz-Kinoy is occupying the ground floor of Villa Era with a site-specific project titled Grand Entrance. The starting point for the artist’s project is the concept of the Theatrum Mundi and his research into the lavish festivities that the Medici rulers were famous for staging throughout the city of Florence during the Renaissance, particularly the wedding of Arch Duke Ferdinando I de' Medici and Christine of Lorraine in 1589. Many architectural elements designed by Bernardo Buontalenti for this event still exist along with designs and etchings, as well as the accounts of these lavish festivities, including a reenactment of a naval battle that was staged in the flooded courtyard of Palazzo Pitti, and were elaborately reconstructed by the historian Aby Warburg. The complex framework of these popular performative weddings saw public spaces, streets and cities decorated and framed as stages and theatrical platforms that merged existing architecture with artifice, stage props and imagined perspectives – architecture as theatre and vice versa.
